Overview

Honeycomb Teams can require authentication through a SAML Identity Provider (IdP). This guide walks you through logging in to a SAML-configured Honeycomb Team.

​
Before you begin

Before you log in, make sure you have the following:
  • An account in your team’s SAML IdP, such as Okta or Microsoft Entra ID. If you need help determining which IdP your team uses, contact your Team Owner.
  • Access to the email address associated with your IdP account.
You don’t need an existing Honeycomb account. If you don’t have one, Honeycomb creates one for you during the login process.

​
Logging in

1

Log in to your IdP

To reach your Honeycomb team’s login page, you must first log in to your IdP. Choose the option that works best for you.
If you know your team’s slug, go directly to your team’s SAML login page:
  • US: https://ui.honeycomb.io/login/sso/{team_slug}
  • EU: https://ui.eu1.honeycomb.io/login/sso/{team_slug}
For example, to log in to a US team with the slug hny, go to https://ui.honeycomb.io/login/sso/hny.If the team is configured for SAML, the page redirects to the team’s SAML IdP.
If you need help choosing an option or locating Honeycomb in your IdP dashboard, contact your Team Owner.

Log in to Honeycomb

Once you have logged in to your IdP, your login flow depends on whether you are a new Honeycomb user or an existing one.
If you are new to Honeycomb, Honeycomb asks you to verify your email address before creating your account. To verify:
  1. Check your email for an account activation code.
    The verification email may take a few minutes to arrive. Check your spam folder if you don’t see it.
  2. Copy the verification code from the email.
  3. Enter the code on the Honeycomb landing page.
  4. Select Submit.
Honeycomb redirects you to your team’s home page.
